Brief description of project
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in the western world. Research at the VUmc Tumor Profiling Unit focuses on the basic
and translational studies that aim to reduce the high death rates from CRC. Previously, specific chromosomal alterations were identified that enhance colon
tumor development. Currently, it is our goal to identify the genes that drive colon adenoma-to-carcinoma progression.
